“A tired man lay down his head in a dusty room so dim, and for so long his wife did shake and yell to waken him. Meanwhile his thoughts, his dreams, did stir of sandy, red bullfights, of powder-blasts in the air and carnival delights. Yet still his wife was in despair in a dusty room so dim, for she knew death was a whore not far from tempting him.” — Roman Payne
A tired man lay down his head
in a dusty room so dim,
and for so long his wife did shake
and yell to waken him.
Meanwhile his thoughts, his dreams, did stir
of sandy, red bullfights,
of powder-blasts in the air
and carnival delights.
Yet still his wife was in despair
in a dusty room so dim,
for she knew death was a whore
not far from tempting him.
